Routing

Post by green »

Hello

I have question: Does rcf has the option to route communication ?

What I mean ...
We have many computers grouped in local networks. We want to create system where in local group one of computers work as "router".
So router has one physical connection with main serwer, and every computer in group is connected with router.
Main serwer has bidirectional, logical connection beetwen it and every computer in group.
We want to have an identical interface to bidirectional communication beetwen main serwer and target computer regardless of using router or not.

How to achieve it with RCF ?

Hi,

RCF suppports HTTP, including the use of HTTP proxies. So what you can do is use a HTTP transport to connect from your clients to the main server, and this will allow you route client requests through an HTTP proxy in each local group. Here is some more information on HTTP support in RCF:

http://www.deltavsoft.com/doc/rcf_user_ ... eling.html

There is a drawback to be aware of though, in that RCF currently does not support bidirectional communication over HTTP. So the main server will not be able to initiate calls back to the clients in the local groups. We may be able to implement this in future releases, but for now it is not supported.
Kind Regards
